Adding translation when installing the component

This section is unclear to me. It reads, "With your favorite file manager and editor, put a file EXTENSIONROOT/language/en-GB/en-GB.myextension.sys.ini. This file will contain translation for the install."

In the tutorial on making extensions, most everything is in site/... or admin/... so there is no folder called com_helloword/... com_helloworld is created automatically, so where in the package should EXTENSIONROOT/language/en-GB/en-GB.myextension.sys.ini go?

Earlier in the tutorial, there is already a sys.ini created in the admin directory with different content, and all the tutorial references are to the extension being made (e.g. the file would be named en-GB.com_helloworld.sys.ini not en-GB.myextension.sys.ini and the file does not appear in the package list. The package list also contains a file called language/en-GB/en-GB.ini which does not appear to be in the tutorial and does not link to any content.
